We still have the presence of sin, nay, the stirrings and workings of corruptions. These make us to have many a sad heart and wet eye. Yet Christ has thus far freed us from sin; it shall not have dominion. There may be the turbulence, but not the prevalence of sin. There may be the stirrings of corruption. It was said of Carthage that Rome was more troubled with it when half destroyed than when whole. So a godly man may be more troubled with sin when it is conquered than when it reigned. Sin will still work, but it is checked in its workings. They are rather workings for life than from life. They are not such uncontrolled workings as formerly. Sin is under command. Indeed, it may get advantage, and may have a tyranny in the soul, but it will never more be sovereign. I say, it may get into the throne of the heart and play the tyrant in this or that particular act of sin, but shall never more be as a king there. Its reign is over; you will never yield a voluntary obedience to sin. Sin is conquered, though it still has a being within you.
Samuel Bolton

108:1 +

108:2 Mit Hjerte er trøstigt, Gud, mit hjerte er trøstigt; jeg vil synge og lovprise dig, vågn op, min Ære!

108:3 Harpe og Citer, vågn op, jeg vil vække Morgenrøden.

108:4 Jeg vil takke dig, HERRE, blandt Folkeslag, lovprise dig blandt Folkefærd;

108:5 thi din Miskundhed når til Himlen, din Sandhed til Skyerne.

108:6 Løft dig, o Gud, over Himlen, din Herlighed være over al Jorden!

108:7 Til Frelse for dine elskede hjælp med din højre, bønhør os!

108:8 Gud talede i sin Helligdom: “Jeg vil udskifte Sikem med Jubel, udmåle Sukkots Dal;

108:9 mit er Gilead, mit er Manasse, Efraim er mit Hoveds Værn, Juda min Herskerstav,

108:10 Moab min Vaskeskål, på Edom kaster jeg min Sko, over Filisterland jubler jeg.”

108:11 Hvo bringer mig til den befæstede By, hvo leder mig hen til Edom?

108:12 Har du ikke, Gud, stødt os fra dig? Du ledsager ej vore Hære.

108:13 Giv os dog Hjælp mod Fjenden! Blændværk er Menneskers Støtte.

108:14 Med Gud skal vi øve vældige Ting, vore Fjender træder han ned!
